| | MP Tony Halme´s sentence and fines remain unchanged after Appeals Court hearing - TD Talk - News, Politics, and Life |
 | | Halme was then given a four-month suspended prison sentence and was ordered to pay fines totalling 80 income-linked "day-fines" - amounting to EUR 4,480 - for criminal offences that were uncovered in connection with a drunken firearms violation episode in the summer of 2003. |
 | | Halme demanded in the Appeals Court that the charges of smuggling illegal drugs and of possession of illegal imported goods be dropped, and that the passed suspended prison sentence be reduced to a fine. |
 | | Halme also stated that because of the way the police handled the case, he had to wait for an hour before being admitted to a hospital. |
